【9】Loss of excalibur
The code of the heroic spirit is not to reveal its abilities casually, to eliminate outsiders who see things about the heroic spirit, to stop showing mercy, to stop being kind, and to win by any means necessary.
- She shouldn't have saved Natasha.
The Avengers don't need her help, they think they can, and Artoria doesn't need her help either...she can continue to hide her strength.
But she also always remembered the words she swore when she became a knight.
【I swear to be kind to the weak
I swear to stand up to rape]
Artoria took a deep breath, and all the magic power pouring out of her body was concentrated on the sword in her hand.
“caliburn————”
Tony looked at Natasha who was immobilized and felt that she was really in a bad mood. Beat him, Natasha! How did you get caught? ! Subconsciously he felt something was wrong, but he had no time to think about it.
However, he suddenly heard a dry "Wow" from Jarvis.
……Wow? !
Tony was rolling his eyes and thinking about a way to save Natasha and get rid of Loki when he suddenly heard Jarvis's voice and immediately responded reflexively: "What'wow'?"
Then he saw the wall on the left explode, and a powerful torrent of magic power hit Loki directly. Loki was blown away without hurting Natasha at all, and even took him directly through the wall on the right.
"..."
"..."
"..."
Looks so familiar...
Tony couldn't help but say "Wow."
Arturia slowly lowered her sword, and she heard the dragon's heart beating violently in her chest, replenishing the huge lost magic power.
She deeply felt that her own strength was not enough.
It should be stronger...such as changing to the form of King Arthur.
However, the form of King Arthur means that she cannot use caliburn. Forcing her to use caliburn in the form of King Arthur will only cause the caliburn to collapse... Then she must have excalibur...
But Excalibur was taken away and studied by Tony Stark, her r, on the first day she was brought into Avengers Tower.
Although it's not like I can't find excalibur by following the magic induction, after all, it was my r who took it away... huh? Why did excalibur move?
Artoria reacted immediately. She raised her head suddenly and asked loudly: "Jarvis?! Where is my Victory Oath Sword? Where did you put it?!"
Jarvis continued to answer politely, but stopped awkwardly: "Of course it's in Mr.'s laboratory - eh?"
Artoria clicked her tongue and frowned: Sure enough, Excalibur was moved away.
At the same moment, Natasha, who was rescued, coughed twice. She had no time to respond to the Avengers' worries and joy. She quickly stood up and waved to her friends while running towards the laboratory: "Follow me!"
Tony was still a little confused and felt that his eyes were blinded by the torrent of magic power. He subconsciously ran a few steps to catch Loki first. When he saw Natasha running, he stepped back to follow: "Hey, what? Yes? We still have to arrest the second princess."
Thor twitched his lips sharply: "That's my brother."
Tony responded impatiently: "I know, Princess... Natasha, what are you doing, what's wrong?" Thinking about it, he shouted again: "Jarvis? What happened?"
"Hydra is involved in this matter... Why do you think I was caught by Loki?" Natasha replied sarcastically with a click of her tongue. "Lexiton is from Hydra, and now they're out to get your secret weapon."
Tony was stunned: "Wait, what secret weapon?"
Jarvis responded first: "It has a powerful energy response. Hydra seems to think that the Avengers have found another thing similar to the Infinity Stones - Sir, that is Miss Pendragon's sword, please put it I’m in your laboratory, and now it’s all blocked, so I can’t see anything.”
iron Man:"……"
Iron Man: "F**k!"
He suddenly opened the rear propeller cannon and left everyone behind him without saying a word.
People running forward: "..."
In fact, their location was not that far away from the laboratory. It was only a few steps away after turning a corner. However, when the Avengers arrived, they only saw Iron Man kicking the door and sulking. Jarvis still comforted him calmly and politely: "Sir, please don't take it too seriously. Miss Pendragon will not be angry with you for losing it." He took her sword." He really felt that Artoria wouldn't care. After all, she respectfully called "r" every time she faced Mr., as if she put Iron Man first in everything.
Natasha's eyes changed immediately after hearing this: "Is that Artoria's sword?"
"..." Iron Man's eyes drifted as his eyes changed instantly. "Hey! What's that look in your eyes?! Have you been attacked by her in just two days? She's still on the list of suspects." Feeling that Steve was looking at him reproachfully, Tony couldn't help but He twitched his lips and apologized. "Well, it's my fault that that magical sword was taken away by Hydra...oh god f**k Hydra!!"
Steve expressed tactfully: "Stark, you should apologize to Miss Pendragon."
Natasha flipped her hair and laughed: "I just remember that Artoria helped us just now~"
Tony: "..."
"Okay, okay," Tony took off his helmet and scratched his head. "Let's not talk about that for now. How about Jarvis? Can you track Hydra?"
Jarvis responded immediately and apologetically: "I'm sorry, sir."
"But I can."
Arturia walked slowly around the corner and threw the person she was dragging towards him with her right hand: "He wanted to run away, so I beat him and brought him here."
The person who was dragged over gasped twice, and when he raised his head, it was Loki: "Are you a heroic spirit?"
Artoria nodded happily, and whispered with Sol's questioning eyes: "Yes."
Loki's slightly swollen face twisted into a smile: "Oh, warrior of Asgard...are you also here to help your future king?"
Arturia frowned - of course, in Loki's eyes, it was the disgust he showed after he said it right, so he smiled even more happily - as if thinking about something, but also as if he was enduring What. Finally she said, "No."
If you think about it seriously, there is no restraint in this world, and there is no Holy Grail or anything like that...
"If I must say it, I'm probably a warrior on Gaia's side."
Arturia heard Alaya's recruitment when she just defeated Mordred and looked back to see the desolation and spreading blood...but she refused.
When Mordred, who had not completely cut off his breath, caught up and attacked her, and when she was dying, she heard the voices of Morgan and Merlin.
...Want to see them.
...I want to hold their hands and see them happy.
…want to know why…
Then she heard Gaia's voice.
【Your persistence touches me. 】it says. [I heard your voice...are you willing to sign a contract with me? 】
"I have nothing to do with places like Asgard." Artoria looked directly at Loki, her eyes seemed to be filled with flames. "And—King? Are you insulting me?"
"No one can be my king...because I am the king."
she asserted.
